Day Grab samples were collected at 25 sites within Central Fladen Core Marine
Conservation Zone on survey CEND0113x, a Day Grab which is more suited to for
the muddy sandy sediments expected in the area, with a surface sampling area
of 0.1 m2, was deployed to collect sediment from the seabed. Samples were
collected from within a 100 m radius around the target location..
The sample depth in the day grab was taken to estimate the volume of the
sample. A sediment core was then taken from the sample and stored in a plastic
tub for Particle Size Analysis (PSA) in the laboratory.
The remaining sample was emptied in a plastic box and transferred to the
sample processing area onboard the vessel. Benthic fauna were collected by
washing the sample with sea-water over a 5mm and 1 mm sieve. The retained >1
mm fraction was transferred to a labelled container and preserved in 4%
buffered formaldehyde for later analysis ashore.
